What's the last thing you bought?

I think we're just getting scammed. Saw a girl post a vid yesterday who was shocked those shitty chocolate advent calendars were $12-14 at the grocery store. She's here from the UK and had her mom bring her a better Cadbury one from there which was 1.5 pounds to buy at home. I'm convinced grocery stores and restaurants are absolutely fleecing us right now, it's 10% inflation used as an excuse for 30-50% price increases. The grocery stores which are listed publicly are posting record profits. Loblaws posted a 30% increase while charging $9 for cauliflower.

Agreed. Also there is a visa-abour shortage in Australia, related to Covid. Could be an issue in Canada as well?

Ugh, as if. I would never date someone who looked like that. I don't do chubby to begin with, let alone douchey.

**Teh One Who Knocks** · 12-23-2022, 01:10 AM

Are you sure that's even a female?

**DemonGeminiX** · 12-23-2022, 02:04 AM

You're right. The gender on this one is quite ambiguous.

Yikes, what went wrong with it? That's brutal, I've never had a TV fail on me outright I don't think.
